The Department of Homeland Predators?

It seems that the recent revelation that the deputy press secretary for Homeland Security trying to seduce underage girls online was just the tip of the iceberg. Since then, we've had news that two other officials at Homeland have been involved in similar crimes.

TPM Muckraker reports that Frank Figueroa (who used to run Operation Predator- which goes after sex criminals) was busted last year for exposing himself to a girl in a food court. And AmericaBlog finds a recent report about a third Homeland official- Michael Burks- who was caught in an MSNBC sting operation trying to have sex with an underage girl.

Is this why we can't find Osama? All the Homeland people are trying to score underage girls?

Methinks Homeland Security has some 'splaining to do.

[PS- Regarding the original Homeland Security pervert story, I think the folks at Truth Dig said it best- "Troubling for two reasons: (a) This shows the moral fiber of the people entrusted to spy on Americans; (b) this shows the incompetence and foolishness of the people entrusted to secure our borders—this kind of sting is the oldest trick in the book." Indeed.]
